Needler Species in Galfin | World Anvil

Needler

The needler is a nocturnal quadruped mammal with a grey, emaciated body covered in thin purple quills. It has a long snout and mangled teeth, and is known for its aggressive behavior. These creatures are often feared and avoided due to their needle-like quills, which they use to defend themselves and attack prey. They are native to a variety of environments in the world of Galfin, and are known to be difficult to tame or domesticate.
  They are found in the more desolate areas of Galfin, such as the Caluan Desert and the Firefang Jags mountain range. The quills of the needler are coated in a potent neurotoxin that can incapacitate or even kill their prey. They are considered to be a major threat to travelers and are often hunted or avoided by local populations.
